It's not just me right, the buildup to Wrestlemania this

That's been every Wrestlemania for the last 4 years

Eh kinda
WM 29, nobody gave a shit
WM 30, the crowd rioted until Daniel Bryan wasn't given a chance to Main Event, then it became gold
WM 31 more riots because noone wanted to see Roman beat Brock
WM 32 most main eventers injured, nobody wanted to see Roman again (20k empty seats)
WM 33 you'd think Vince learned anything from before, but nah more Roman going over

>>2421856
>20k
9k, there was an attendance of 93k

You all will still watch like cucks

>>2421815
>>2421856
I've been more excited for the previous Wrestlemanias without a doubt. They actually had a decent buildup and seemed like they actually cared, even just a little. They were decent. RAW's had some weight, they don't anymore. This might as well be during football season because literally nothing happens.

Since KO/Jericho broke up, nothing really of note.

>>2421876
official data came out like a month ago

Vince inflated the number including the building staff, shops, etc, the tickets sold were 80k

http://stillrealtous.com/details-real-attendance-numbers-wrestlemania-32/

>WWE has touted this number in press releases and media conference calls, but Fightful is reporting that the real number is actually much lower than that. According to the Arlington Police Department, the actual attendance number for the event was 80,709.

>Vince McMahon has said that the 101,763 number includes “usher and ticket takers and all of that” but last July WWE publicly released documents revealing that paid attendance for the event was somewhere between 73,111 and 85,888.


20k seats empty for Roman

Reminds me when WWF had the Royal Rumble in San Antonio and they had to give away 20k tickets because HBK didn't draw a time in his hometown

>>2422196
kek

Romanetty is a confirmed anti-draw.

Don't forget the supposed WM34 main event. Da big Dawg gets pushed again. Goddamn it

>>2422357
it's that and WWE's official numbers saying ''between 73k and 85k''

which basically settles it

no matter how much Vince (and you ) wants to spin it, 20k tickets weren't sold

>>2422615
I'll go with 85k

>>2421856
>WM 33 you'd think Vince learned anything from before, but nah more Roman going over

He did learn
He learned that pushing Reigns equaled RECORD REVENUE so he's putting him over a jabroni who pajeets love

>>2422651
>pushing Reigns equaled RECORD REVENUE
>TV deal signed in 2014
????????????????????

>>2422651
worked

>>2422635
>wwe numbers are between 73k and 85k
>Arlington PD says 80k
we have confirmation, you don't get to go with anything, it's 20 empty seats

>>2422772
we have been through that as well

the only thing making money for WWE these days is the Network

on which the most seen shows are:
-Holy Foley
-old shows
-NXT

Meaning that Foley's slutty daughter is a bigger draw than Roman

This wm has a great matchcard and the rivalries have pretty decent buildups. The problem is that they don't have heat, it doesn't feel like WrestleMania

Oldberg vs bork
Big dog vs undercarder
Sef vs haitch
Edgy satanic cringe fedora tipper fatass neckbeard vs snek
All three have crear buildup but they lack of hype

>Sef vs haitch
I'm a big mark for both of them, don't tell me the buildup has been good. There's been moments, but so much of it has just been talking. And talking. And talking.

I get that they wanted to get it out of the way and I get that Seth got hurt, but I was looking forward to this match for a while and compared to something like Reigns/Haitch from last year, it's not the same.

the card actually is pretty
feels like a bunch of main events, really, every match is interesting.

but the heat is not fucking there.
Y2J - Jericho is the only thing that feels mania worthy.. maybe Orton Bray with some good work tomorrow.
Feels like they legit need 2 more weeks.
Pretty fucking bad.

not sure if genius
but read the top line and the last line

>>2422651
>revenue =/= profit

2016 was one of the more pedestrian years for profit since 1999

I'm thinking it'll be a better idea to not watch the weekly shows and just watch WM
The promo packages they do are always great no matter how lacklustre the feud was

Yes this has been the worst wrestlemania build up ever.

Mostly cause we just had the worst and most bland royal rumble in history. No one even talks about Randy winning.

Because no one gives a shit about the product anymore

Smackdown will have a great go home show and get us all excited for Wrestlemania, right bros?

WWE is ice-cold and has been for years now. WM is always shit.

To be fair, I loved WM 31 and I thought WM 30 was pretty good.

WM 31 might be one of the my favorites of all time.

The show itself wasn't great honestly. Some decent matches, better than others in recent memory but I can't say it was great start to finish even if it is one of my favourite Mania's based on Seth going over alone. Oh, and the best RKO of all time.
Venue was great too.

They dont have to try anymore because maarks buy their tickets a year in advance and are subscribing to the network instead of paying for PPV.

WWE is the McDonalds of wrestling.

>>2426268
>overscripted bullshit sequence

>>2421809
>Brock was once in this good a shape
He's stopped caring.

>>2426289
I'd say right after this match is when he stopped caring

>>2426276
I thought the "WWE is the Disney of wrestling" was pretty accurate, but this is, too.

Yeah, I've barely cared about any storylines this year. I got sort of invested in Dolph vs Miz, but Vince killed that without any real resolution.
In fact, I don't think I've given a shit about the title since...maybe partway through Seth's run, so almost two years. I don't even know who the current champ is. Oh yeah, Bray.
As for the Universal title, I just want it to go away. What the fuck is happening to WWE?

>>2421809
It feels nothing like Wrestlemania season, there's no magic with anything on RAW

>>2426278
>overscripted
Wrestling isn't real anon.

>>2426289
No anon, he got literally busted for roiding and had to stop

>>2426397
UFC busted him. Does Vince even care?

30 was done when Taker lost his streak to me

Which was humorous because they followed that match with pissbreak divas
